VIPs and industry luminaries gathered at Shoreditch House for the second InStyle Best of British Talent party in association with Lancôme last night. Held in anticipation of the 2011 Orange British Academy Film Awards in February,the cocktail party also celebrated the March issue of InStyle magazine, which features a talent portfolio of hot young British stars set to light up stage and screen in 2011.
“InStyle’s Bafta party, in its second year, is all about exciting young talent in film and television with music and fashion sprinkled on top. We look forward to celebrating all of the people we’ll be watching in 2011, and Julian Broad’s beautiful Bafta portfolio featured in our March issue.” said Eilidh MacAskill, InStyle Editor in Chief.
The star-studded crowd (including Heidi Klum, Thandie Newton, David Gandy, Benedict Cumberbatch and Nathalie Dormer) were entertained by a live performance by Eliza Doolittle, which included hit songs Skinny Jeans and Pack Up, with Sunday Girl and artist Bip Ling hitting the decks later in the evening.
